Which system should I go for, my budget was around £800 and also should I change any components, i could prolly get away with a couple of pounds over budget etc

thx
oh btw, if you're wondering where I got my stuff from, its a combination of www.scan.co.uk
www.overclockers.co.uk for the memory
www.xcase.co.uk for the thermaltake case

6800GT > 6600GT by a long way i think

treat urself there isnt that much difference between the prices also bear in mind that the geil might be cheap at microdirect! (dual channel!)

also check microdirect for their harddrives (maxtor 10 sata!)

anyway good spec and decnt prices, just hope you already have a monitor!

Well, I do have a monitor and we might order one of these second hand 22" 1600x1200 beats off Ebay for pocket money change, v cheap, my monitor can support 1280x1024 anyway which is pretty good
